SINFT Filtration Solutions for Wind Energy Systems

For over 16 years, SINFT has accumulated extensive experience in manufacturing filtration systems and filters for wind turbines. The wind industry makes an important contribution to the energy revolution and to a future-oriented power supply. The wind power industry faces a series of unique and very demanding challenges.

By utilizing the latest technology, SINFT filter elements can be installed in many wind turbines to provide comprehensive gearbox protection.

Filtration Importance for Wind Power

Ensuring the mechanical reliability of wind turbines is a particularly challenging task, as poor lubrication methods can lead to system gearbox, hydraulic system, and bearing failures, which can be costly to repair.

With extreme operating conditions and the demand for continuous availability and efficiency, it is crucial to extend the interval between regular maintenance, reduce the cost of lubricating oil replacement, protect the system from faults, and prevent and handle pollution.

To ensure a low wear and tear and thus also low-maintenance operation of the wind power system, we have developed a comprehensive filtration process. SINFT offers the solutions for wind turbine equipment.

How and Where SINFT can Help?

Wind turbines are constantly exposed to the weather. To make electricity to be generated continuously from wind, SINFT filters helps to remove dirt particles from the air, operating fluids or surface water that can impair the efficient functioning of the system. Keeping their smooth functionality even under adverse circumstances is the basic requirement.

Particle Contamination Is the Leading Cause of Hydraulic and Gearbox Failure

Hydraulic Unit

A hydraulic system in the turbines provides a braking mechanism for a unit, but can also be used for hydraulic pitch control on the blades. The oil in this application not only transmits power, but it also provides lubrication, heat transfer, and transports contaminants to be filtered out.

Gearbox

Gearboxes in wind turbines act as a significant role. In wind turbines, the impact of contaminants on slower turning gear drives is slow and insidious. Nevertheless, the mean time between failure for gears and shaft-support bearings can be increased by as much as two to three times by maintaining optimum levels of fluid cleanliness and dryness.

SINFT Solutions for Contamination Control

Water, often considered the second most harmful contaminant, causes corrosion, cavitation erosion, lubricant degradation and significantly degrades the lubricant's film strength leading to more mechanical wear. Attacking contamination of your system at the source, removing water from the oil to protect the system running smoothly is always an important project.
